    Leaking Extended Cab Rear Window

    Okay guys, so I lied. The leak is coming from a cracked (@ driver side wiper) crowl grille. Just ordered another one via LMC Truck for $145 shipped...hopefully everything will stay dry now! Thanks for the help.

    How Rare is My 1999 Chevy K1500 Silverado Extended Cab?

    That's one beautiful truck, Wilecoyote...I'm a big fan. I just removed the running boards on my 99 4x4 and it definitely made the truck look better. And YES, the $60k+ sticker price on new trucks is driving up the used market. Personally, I'd rather drop $14k cash on a clean, low mileage GMT400...

    1999 K1500 Replacement Catalytic Converter, Bank 2

    If I understand correctly, you guys are suggesting I pick up one of those K1500 pre-cat exhaust pipes that includes both Bank 1 + Bank 2 cat and bolt it up to my stock muffler. This way, I'm future-proofed against the Bank 1 converter inevitably failing shortly after replacing the Bank 2...

    How Rare is My 1999 Chevy K1500 Silverado Extended Cab?

    Yep, that's my truck up for sale on Craigslist, just testing the waters. Planning to move to the beach (OCMD) soon and would let the truck go for the right price (like any other asset I own).

    GMT400 Speedometer Calibration

    Awesome, thanks so much guys! Does the Black Bear tune really increase performance on a stock K1500? Or is it designed for modified vehicles?

    How Rare is My 1999 Chevy K1500 Silverado Extended Cab?

    Haha right? Custom ordering an OEM 40/60 split covered in grey leather was a power move. Fully expected bucket seats w/ center console like my 1994 Z71 1500 ECSB 350 had.

    1999 K1500 Replacement Catalytic Converter, Bank 2

    All, Need to replace the cat on bank 2 on my 1999 K1500 w/ the 350. I've heard that quality cats can be had online for ~$100, would you guys mind directing me to these websites? Please and thank you. -Bob

    GMT400 Speedometer Calibration

    All, My 1999 K1500 is reading about 30% too fast (speedometer), causing the odometer to also read 30% fast. Presumably the prior owner had larger wheels/tires on it and had it re calibrated, however, I've also heard that this is a common failure point on the GMT400. What is the most...

    How Rare is My 1999 Chevy K1500 Silverado Extended Cab?

    Thanks, all. I was curious if it was "rare" because of a few attributes: 1999 GMT400 (1988-98) leftover half-ton Grey leather interior Grey leather 40/60 split bench front seat (vs bucket seats) Medium Grey Metallic exterior paint Classic 4x4, not a Z71 or Z71 conversion (via fake stickers)...

    How Rare is My 1999 Chevy K1500 Silverado Extended Cab?

    All, Earlier this year, I picked up a 1999 (leftover 1998) Chevy K1500 and I'm curious how rare this truck is. For reference, I've owned 3 K1500s (1994 Z71, 1998 4x4 and 1999 4x4) and my Grandad has a 1998 Z71...so I've been eyeing up these trucks for 20 years and have never seen this specific...

    Leaking Extended Cab Rear Window

    Excellent question...and thank you for the reply! Truthfully, I will need to test this (hosing it down and pulling in on window) with a helper and once I do, I will report back here. Appreciate you.

    Leaking Extended Cab Rear Window

    All, My 1999 K1500 is leaking water from the extended cab passenger side back window. It's causing water to pool along the door, soak the carpet + sound deafening material and rust the floorboard. Is the window seal replaceable? Or should I silicone that bad boy shut and call it a day? Any...

    Removal of 2-3" Rough Country Suspension Lift

    Thanks man! You know...what you describe makes sense. I keep seeing testimonies of how great peoples trucks ride with this kit vs stock....when I look at the kit, it looks like junk and feels like junk.... Maybe it is... Either way, it's coming off. Thanks all!

    Removal of 2-3" Rough Country Suspension Lift

    Change of pace here guys... 1) If I swapped the Rough Country POS shocks out for some Bilstein Adjustables such as 5100s, do you anticipate the ride quality/handling would mock OEM handling? The one positive I heard about this kit is it does not screw with the OEM steering geometry...perhaps...

    Please Help Me Pick Out Parts for My Truck Suspension Overhaul!!!

    I am very much trying to decide between the Bilstein 5100, Comforts, or HDs now...anyone with insight on how they work with a 4x4 GMT400 is very much appreciated!!!

    Please Help Me Pick Out Parts for My Truck Suspension Overhaul!!!

    All- I posted a thread in here months ago about a similar topic. Please disregard that...things have changed. I bought a clean 1998 K1500 (4x4 extended cab short bed) this year. The previous owner needed to replace steering/suspension parts on the truck for his son...so instead of going...

    Removal of 2-3" Rough Country Suspension Lift

    Slightly confused by the question but I will answer the best way I can. 1) I like the look of lifts, but I hate the way they change the steering geometry, kill handling, make a rough ride, kill MPG, wear out front end parts faster, need to be aligned more, and ordering parts....WELL you are...

    Removal of 2-3" Rough Country Suspension Lift

    All: I just bought a 1998 Silverado 1500 (4x4 not Z71) with a brand new, freshly installed Rough Country 2-3" Suspension Lift with add-a-leafs (http://www.roughcountry.com/gm-suspe...t-kit-170.html) . The previous owner installed the lift as he needed to replace front end/steering/suspension...
